"If Megan Fox is NOT officially announced as single on or before 31 August 2008, what will Austin Green do to him?"

Note to Super Users and Cat Editors: This is an event-based question. (Forgot to tag it under settlement details as I will be doing in the future.)

kruijs, I can sure try! and yes I loved the question... lol (kinda sad isn't it? It's what not having a girlfriend will do to you!)
Glcooper, this cannot be settled because it says "By July 19th?" and today is the 15th of July. We need to wait 4 days. Unless he is captured in this time. The question is well within the rules (Has to suspend 7 days or less before settlement)
I think Jenni is the best SU...
I also am unofficially announcing that I threw my hat into the ring!
I told Nigel "Caveat Emptor!"

after the running is over we should not settle this market right away, but leave it be to see if any news of someone dieing from injuries sustained in the run.
Just made a google doc of the number of view this thing produces per minute, per person watching (the 15 sec reload screen)

theonecalledmichael, just wanted to say that we superheroes cannot change anything like that, that is up to the admins. We just help handle the questions.
As for the actual problem, they seem to load fine for me.

Ok, I have no money on this market, and I'm gonna take a swing at it (using a point system):
The Certificate of Live Birth settles the rumors +1 point
it is not his actual Birth Certificate -1 point
most people colloquially accept this document as a "birth certificate" +1
these are the major arguments I see; it comes out to +1 point for the previous settlement

Tbh, I think supers should be allowed to unsuspend too, that way I could have realized my mistake and unsuspended this market.
Darnit... I didn't read this correctly and suspended... I'm sorry I take full responsibility emailing Andrew currnetly
Erik: that isn't gaming, and look he did forget
If I wrote a question saying "Will Derek Jeter hit a home run on 6/8/08?" and he saw it, it wouldn't change the outcomes, now would it?

Erik: How is it so easily gamed
Randburg: I believe Nigel flew home quickly to get there on their anniversary; we will see, since Lesley knew of this market, she probably took pics as proof!

Well it may be common sense to you, but what about someone who doesn't speak/type native English, secondly I almost bet on "Rover does not find ice" because a ROVER probably wouldn't; so a technicality, but one that changes the whole meaning of the question.
Well.. the one that recently landed is a LANDER it does not rove, so is this asking if any of the rovers that landed before that are still ROVING will find ice? ifso the percentages are off... to suspend or not to suspend?
What if McCain wins, then will it be if any letter in his name is missing, or void, or settled as no?
ok, what so if it finds proof of past life, even just little one celled organisms, this settles as yes?
Ryan said:
" So this will be settled as a yes if the votes from Michigan and Florida are counted and used towards delegates.
"if the votes from Michigan's January 15, 2008, primary (which did not include Obama on the ballot), AND the votes from Florida's January 29, 2008 primary are counted, and used to award delegates to the convention. Whether or not there is any form of a "do-over" has no effect on settling this market." "
This contradicts itself by saying "If the votes from Michigans ... AND the votes from Florida's January 29, 2008 primary are counted", but then saying "Whether or not there is any form of a "do-over" has no effect". How can this be? This says the votes from the original primaries must count; if there is a do-over the original votes would not count!

@Destry, if anyone does contact you about this, would you share with the rest of us supers, thanks :D
@theonecalledmichael
Why even get a definitive clarification after all of this lost money, etc; it should have been voided the second Ryan changed his position; the question should be voided, and people who lost money because of Ryan changing his mind multiple times should be refunded their money, that is the only fair way

Ok, I see it as: if Billary... erm Hillary gets 1+ from Michigan, and 1+ from Florida, it is settled as YES; however Ryan has changed his position multiple times, and I feel this market has been mishandled and should be voided... voided....
Going to have to flag and possibly suspend, another fatal flaw: What if a name is Xanny, then "X"; "Y"; and "ANY combo" would win, right>
I can see the next headline: "Space Station evacuated, heading towards earth: after the toilet on the ISS stopped working, and backed up the commanding officer, having waste accidentally flung into both of his eyes, hit the "self destruct" button. Once pressed the self destruct cannot be reversed."
Where will this be announced? Did they specifically say they will be releasing the number of arrests?
lol valornhonor...
also if you have a bottle of cologne that you accidentally leave in your carry on :(... the man was nice atleast
TSA scary man: "now, I am going to put my hand in the bag and look for the bottle of liquid, is there any thing sharp, like a knife, in there that might cut me?"
Me: "I sure as hell hope not"

@ sd and fof
You're right, I just wanted to hear the general consensus of the issues raised therefore I can make a well informed decision;
I should have said something more along the lines of "Seeing what's been said, I'm going to suspend it if noone can give any evidence against me doing so"
and yea, suspending for the wording...

If there is ever news to report...
/me proudly wears his "hubdub" underwear on the outside...
btw, I wonder if he has filed his legal briefs yet?

I'm going to have to void, this isn't news, and as interesting it is there is not way to prove it fully.
Seeing as the first weekend is beginning, I think this should suspend NOW, as if it does make the #1 spot, people will take money out of the "not make #1 spot", so as a super user, I can suspend, lets discuss this first, when do the numbers come out on that site?
Tues the 20th and Jewelry is a class;
I will add computer equipment and "household products" (meaning vacuum cleaners, etc)
oh and OTHER!

I created it on May 14, and meant "within a month" (June 14) but with the 90 character limit I couldn't fit it!
is this about the responsibility to react clause or the responsibility to protect clause talked about in the background info?
... it was pure speculation
but I see why this was voided;however, in my defense, the system wouldn't let me start the odds below 5%

I was just thinking of "Honey, I shrunk the kids!"
I mean seriously, wouldn't it be cool if they could have mini-humans in mini-airplanes flying reconnaissance?

I know for a fact that in the US of A you have to be 18 to legally have pics of u nude or topless anything under is illegal as
'child porn'
and let me just say before my dad (an average American says anything... shut up :P

ok, ok, I added two extra letters! I meant "Will there be a reproduction of "The Blues Brothers" released in the USA in 2008?"
Yes Kruijs, it has to be a reproduction of the original, not a sequel/prequel.
so "The Blues Brothers - Super Deluxe New Masters Blue Ray Director's Cut" would, in fact settle this as 'yes'

Yes I did steal it from Rohan, but he hadn't posted one yet, and mine is much larger. (ok that sounded bad...)
you should have heard the reverb when we were both Skyping with Nigel! Luckily we were in different rooms!
Let me just say the Huge jump in "Between 12400.01 and 12500.00" was my fault, and no I'm not cheating... i meant to put on $500, but put an extra zero, then I could not bail out because it was before the 12 hour limit :/
The last time I posted a question like this it was questioned, however it cannot be gamed and some people *cough* like the paradox in betting against what they think most people would bet on.
Lucidstates: if selling short was allowed, then you could game the system, which you can not normally do. (and "shouldn't" do)
Settled incorrectly as stated here:

I agree with an average american, you can't settle it until after it is settled, as the settler is the answer. Pandora's box??
@rohan, you are talking about the suspend date, suspend date is when you cannot bet on it, not when it is settled, as the settler is the answer how could someone settle it? They would have to look into the future and see someone settling it!

If you bet at all on the first derivative, you want to bet yes on this one.
Right?? because betting no here would say that your bet on the first one is wrong!

truthwrangler, I thought that was repealed, and TBH I think it should be, why are self-referential questions not allowed? If this question can be settled (which it can be) I see no reason to not allow it.
Secondly,
editor, I thought I entered a news keyword as 'hubdub' but it doesn't seem so, if you would please edit that.
Best regards,

markov, I'm going to go break my old laptop then put it on ebay "Really officer, I swear, it hit right out back!"
Doctor Ryan ;) thank ya for the edit.
Satyaki, it is one month from question creation, the 17th of February, which is the 17th of March; as stated in the settlement details.
